Overcome Your Stage Fright with this Soundtrack from Lakeshore RecordsHorror musicals don’t come around all that often, but we were treated to one this year by the name of Stage Fright, featuring the likes of Meat Loaf and Minnie Driver. The film’s soundtrack is on its way, and we have all the details right here.

Lakeshore Records will release the STAGE FRIGHT – Original Motion Picture Soundtrack digitally on August 19th and on CD September 27rd. STAGE FRIGHT features performances by Meat Loaf, Minnie Driver, Allie MacDonald, the Metal Killer, and more.

The film’s writer/director Jerome Sable and Eli Batalion composed the music and lyrics for this “Glee” meets The Rocky Horror Picture Show musical comedy, producing a genre-bending score that mixes heavy metal rock with a full orchestral sound. This R-rated horror-musical was produced by Ari Lantos and Jonas Bell Pasht.

Synopsis
Starry-eyed teenager Camilla Swanson (MacDonald) wants to follow in her mother’s footsteps and become a Broadway diva, but she’s stuck working in the kitchen of a snobby performing arts camp. Determined to change her destiny, she sneaks in to audition for the summer showcase and lands a lead role in the play, but just as rehearsals begin, blood starts to spill, and Camilla soon finds herself terrorized by a bloodthirsty masked killer who despises musical theater.

“The Stage Fright score was like a musical experiment borne out of equal love for both Beethoven and Black Sabbath and the naïve hubris that we could combine two disparate musical traditions without compromise. We were like Doctor Moreau on his island, performing vivisections on the classical orchestra using a heavy metal band for a knife,” said Sable.

Batalion adds, “For us, the fusion is a musical fantasy, but just like with those grotesque humanoid island beasts, we expect that most listeners will be horrified.”

Stage Fright is currently available on DVD and Blu-ray from Magnet Releasing.
